Requires a large deposit with low APR… Requires a large deposit with low APR that was not as competitive as the other industry leaders. In the end, it still stumbled alongside the others. It trusted companies that over leveraged and that did not do it any favors.

They are hiding they’re illiquid They are hiding they’re illiquid. I've already got my money out and this is my advice: Be smart, do not risk your whole bag for a few days of 5% APY. Withdraw your crypto TODAY, because they’re practically locking them until Tuesday when it will likely be too late or they’ll come up with another excuse to keep them.

Absolutely awful company Absolutely awful company. Today, BlockFi informed users that they would no longer offer free withdrawals on the Ethereum ecosystem. BlockFi intentionally did this right before the thanksgiving holiday, with only 7 days to go before this change goes into effect. Customers who have already used their one free withdrawal this month are essentially blindsided, and their crypto is now trapped, unable to be moved without fees. This intentional disrespect of the customer shows what a scummy company they are. They might as well be saying "F you" to the little guys who have made a hundred bucks in interest this year. Now ETH withdrawals will cost over 60$ USD, which is 3X the average current ETH gas fee cost of 20$ USD. Do not use this company. They are exploitative, money-hungry, and don't give a damn about their customers.

VERY expensive withdrawal I noticed that the withdrawal fee for many cryptocurrencies are about $50 USD, such as GUSD, PAX, USDT, USDC. It's free to add money but withdrawals are way too expensive. Fiat minimum withdrawal is also $10,000 which is too high and the advertising on their website does not mention all this. Not great, especially when the minimum deposit is just $100. This was not detailed very clearly when we signed up, so you need to be careful. Even free withdrawals have some form of transaction fee tied to them, even though I've not initiated any other transactions in that calendar month.

BlockFi Pisses Your Money Away BlockFi uses arcane nuances in their agreements to rip off customers. I've discovered the BlockFi charge card is all of a sudden, not a BlockFi product. That is, BlockFi can freeze my crypto balances (code for stealing them?) but still insist I pay them for purchases charged to the BlockFi card. At a minimum, they should apply my crypto balance to my card payment. DO NOT do business with this dishonest firm that has mismanaged its finances and will make you pay for their recklessness.
